1001 Activities for a Smarter Child
"MIX FUN WITH LEARNING"
I highly recommend this book to anyone that is a caregiver-teacher for young children. My grandchildren tend to get bored and this book encourages them to participate in activities other than just watching television. Activities are rated with difficulty levels which are helpful since every child is so different. The book contains a vast array of activities-projects from art, nutrition, science and music. These activities help encourage participation and help build confidence. Examples - games, beginning reading, exploring, body coordination, outdoor activities, creative thinking, problem solving, creative thinking, experimenting, following directions, etc. This book is educational and fun at the same time. Helps give children a head start for school and to develop lifelong problem solving skills.

A-to-Z by Sandra Boynton
A sturdy board book which is great for toddlers. A classic which is quick to read with great illustrations - humorous and silly. Very entertaining. Bought this for my grandson's birthday, which he loved since it is easy to read with great expression.
